Biography

Dr. El-Guindy received his Ph.D. from the Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry at Yale University. He has been a member of the Yale faculty since 2011. The Guindy laboratory has a longstanding interest in the biology of human oncogenic herpesviruses namely, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV). Research in his laboratory is mainly focused on the following three areas of research: 1) the mechanisms that regulate expression of genes encoding viral structural proteins (e.g. capsid proteins), 2) The role of a long non-coding EBV RNA in promoting viral lytic replication and de novo infection, and 3) involvement of herpesviruses in the etiology and prognosis of lung cancer.

How will my information be used?

When you express interest in a specific study, the information from your profile will be sent to the doctor conducting that study. If you're eligible to participate, you may be contacted by a nurse or study coordinator.

If you select a health category rather than a specific study, doctors who have active studies in that area may contact you to ask if you would like to participate.

In both cases, you will be contacted by the preferred method (email or phone) that you specified in your profile.
